Unexpected Events in Honduras

On June 23rd I stepped onto an airplane simply walking by faith. What would God have for me in Honduras? I had expected to accompany Dr. Kenneth Hill, who had been doing ministry in Honduras for almost three decades. But now, after breaking his ankle and needing surgery, he would stay behind. 

My only contact in Honduras was Pastor Luis Vega, a close friend of Dr. Hill. They had been serving together in ministry from the beginning of Dr. Hill’s service in Central America. Luis had been hosting pastors, missionaries and missions teams from North America for many years. He is one of the leaders of the church in Honduras.

Stepping off the airplane, I expected to do a Christ in the Passover in a few churches. What transpired during this 8-day ministry adventure was truly remarkable. Great is His faithfulness! God opened up many opportunities for ministry. I had 10 speaking engagements in 6 days. Aside from sharing the Passover presentation in 4 different venues, I also taught in a seminary, did a radio interview, preached a message on evangelism and led a bible study at a church, addressed a group of pastors in Luis’ denomination, and ministered the gospel in a high school. There were many people who had never met a Jewish person, much less a Jewish believer in Jesus.

We spent 2 days in Langue, a town of less than 10,000 near the southern border. The remainder of the trip I ministered in Siguatepeque, a city of 85,000 in the central mountains of the country where Luis and his family live. It’s green, colorful, and temperate, at 3,000 feet above sea level.

It was a privilege to share my faith journey and encourage and equip God’s people to fulfill the Great Commission. It was also a joy share the Jewish roots of the gospel found in the Old Testament, to teach about the New Covenant, and enlighten people’s understanding of Israel’s place in God’s redemptive plan.

It’s difficult to articulate in a few paragraphs all God accomplished in and through this season of ministry. Honduras is a rugged, beautiful, and mountainous country with warm, lovely people. Know that the church is alive and well in Honduras, as I met many God-fearing people who love Him and serve Him.

When Jesus told the disciples they would be His witnesses ‘to the utter ends of the earth’ in Acts 1:8, how could they have known what unexpected blessings they would experience as they stepped out in faith!

As I took a step of faith and experienced Honduras for the first time, I rejoice in the Lord and am grateful for an abundance of unexpected blessings!

Investing In Young People

Perhaps you’ve heard this pithy catchphrase: The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. To better understand one we must also study the other, because this is the whole counsel of God. I’ve already spent two days earlier this summer teaching at Doe River Gorge (DRG), a Christian outdoor adventure camp located in the Mountains of East Tennessee. I’m helping high schoolers in one of DRG’s leadership programs connect the dots through sharing Jewish Roots of the gospel and sharing Christ in the Passover. I’ll be there again on July 9 & July 23, helping grow their understanding of God’s redemptive plan through building gospel foundations. Please pray seeds sown during this time would bear much fruit for His Glory!
